The GAA has revealed that Maurice Deegan will referee this year's All-Ireland Football Final between Kerry and Tyrone.

The Central Referees Appointment Control Committee announced on Wednesday morning that the match (Sunday, 21 September - throw in 3.30pm) will be refereed by the Laois native, who took charge of the match between Kerry and Monaghan earlier this year.

Kerry, the current champions, won that fixture 1-13 to 0-13.

Deegan also refereed the clash between Meath and Wexford in Leinster, which saw Meath overhauled after going 10 points up in the second half. He has not been in charge for a match involving Tyrone so far in this year's Championship.

The All-Ireland Minor Final between Mayo and Tyrone, which will take place on the same day, will be refereed by Rory Hickey of Clare.





Is this good news or bad news

Was Deegan the man wwho reffed Tyrone v Down in Healy? If so he was veery impressive that day.

[Gabriel_Hurl]

He didn't according to the post before yours.

He has already refereed Kerry though, against Monaghan

[Doohicky]

It's started!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can't see these pictures in work.. Is it the tinnies?
If so I'll have to get a look at them this weekend when I am down home.

[nrico2006]

Aye, the tinnies have got all dressed up again.

That was Coldrick. I can't remember any game where he has reffed Tyrone off-hand.

[corn02]

Ah yes, the Meath man? He has always been very good.

Deegan is the man who shamefully waved a red card in the face of Francis Bellew in the summer of 2005 in the Donegal replay. Francis later received justice via an appeal

You will deduce by that then that he will take no nonsense, so Tyrone defenders and goalkeeper had better keep their mits well away from the Gooch's eyes

Tyrone manager Mickey Harte is confident that Sean Cavanagh will be fit to play in the All-Ireland SFC Final against Kerry on 21 September.

Cavanagh was forced off in the second half of Sunday's semi-final win over Wexford because of a back injury and he also dislocated a finger in the game.

However, Harte told BBC Sport on Monday morning that the pain in Cavanagh's back had "eased considerably".

"He has three weeks before the final so he should be grand," said Harte.

Did Mickey Harte kiss Sean Cavanagh's finger better to make him stop crying?

No, hes gonna wait 3 weeks and kiss him on the lips, as he hands Sam to him

The last time an All-Ireland Senior football final was played on the 21st September.........1986

who won?

He didn't according to the post before yours.

I thought he was good that day, seemed to be talking to the players and keeping a potentially volatile game in control. No desire to make himself the center of attention.

If Tyrone win, he'll be a great ref, if we're beat he'll be a bollox - isn't that the way it works ?
